One of the coolest things about blogging is the interaction that occurs when people comment. It’s not unusual here to have a better discussion in the comments than the original post provides.
I truly appreciate those readers that take the time and effort to comment. Well, I truly appreciate every reader, even those that never comment (and like everywhere out there, most readers never comment).
I’ve just added a few features here on Phoenix Real Estate Guy that provides a little incentive and reward for those that comment, and I’ve tried to make it a little easier for commenters by adding comment editing.
DoFollow
I suspect most people are not aware that links in blog comments are initially set up as “nofollow” links. This means the search engines basically ignore the links. I’ve been a “Do Follow” adopter from the beginning of the ‘do follow movement’. Comment links here ARE followed by Google and other search engines. For more info, Dave Smith has a great article on Do Follow.
CommentLuv
I’ve just installed the CommentLuv plugin. This will automatically search for a feed from your blog (assuming you put your blog into the “Website” field in the comment form) and put a link to your last post at the bottom of your comment. In theory, this may entice readers of this blog to check out your latest comment — which helps your traffic, and that link is also followed, which gives you a little more link love. There’s an example in the image at the bottom of this post. Note: It will take a few seconds for the system to “find” your last post, please be patient! And if your RSS feed isn’t auto-detectable, it won’t find it at all.
KeywordLuv
I’ve also just installed KeywordLuv. While the “Luv” suffix is getting annoying, this is a pretty nifty plugin. It’s common to see commenter names like “Timbuktu Real Estate” or “Hotshot Lawyer”, particularly in DoFollow blogs. This is because people know that adding key words to links containing their URL, they get “extra credit” from search engines. With KeywordLuv, you can leave Your name AND keywords, and the system will create the link with your key words.
All you have to do is enter ‘Your Name@Your keywords’ in the comment form name field.
Like this:
That will display as in the example below.
With this, we can all get your name — helps with the whole “community building thing” and you get your keywords.
Reply – Quote other comments
As you can see in the example below, there are now links in the comments that will enable you to reply to a specific comment and quote a comment. I haven’t played with this feature yet, but it’s a part of what appears to be a very cool plugin, WP Comment Remix. UPDATE: This one is acting a bit wonky, so I’m going to turn off the reply/quote function.
Most Active Commentators
Somewhere along the way, I lost the Top Commentators out of the side bar. It’s back, currently residing in the bottom of the first side bar. This is a list of the most active commentators (by number of comments). The count resets each month to zero. If you want a picture / logo to show up there, go to Gravatar.com (this will also add a pic/logo in the comments area). This list is part of the Comment Remix plugin linked above.
Comment Editing
I am a lousy typist. I can type fairly fast, but I have to look at the keys and I make mistakes. I’ve left countless typos scattered across the Internet. In the vast majority of blogs, once you type a comment and click “submit”, your comment is committed and there is nothing you can do to correct silly typos.
That’s no longer an issue on Phoenix Real Estate Guy! You will now have up to 15 minutes after you submit a comment to edit it (or your name, email or URL). 15 minutes seems long enough to me, but if someone thinks they’ll need more time, just… well, leave a comment!
This feature was implemented with Ajax Edit Comments 2.0.
Just for Grins
A few days ago, I added a “Widget Test Area” at the bottom of the far right column. Things may appear here only fleetingly, or they may earn a permanent spot somewhere. Who knows. If you ever see something there and you want more info on it, just ask!
Here’s an example of all these things in action. As always, I reserve the right to change anything or everything! I’d love to hear your thoughts and opinions on these changes!

Jay, you really do rock when it comes to having all of the cool tools. These plugins sound great for your blog and for your readers.
Very, very cool!
*Nick Bastians last blog post..Rail Life "Flickr Pic" of the week – Don’t Ever Forget
Those are pretty cool plug ins. It will be interesting to see how they work. You always come up with interesting things….especially the fold back corner at the top of the blog…that was cool. I’m going to look up those plug ins too. Thanks Jay T.
Your Friend,
Jay V
Wow Jay! At a future meet-up, I’m going to have to beg you to show me your extensive plug-in collection. I like that you turned on some type of avatar in the comments a while back (maybe you posted about it, but I missed it). And you probably noticed I totally stole using the anti-spam math plug-in on my blog, in place of isHuman(). Looks like I have more cool stuff I need to strongly consider thievering.
*Steve Belts last blog post..Arizona Mortgage Rates Roundup September 12, 2008
Hmmm… judging by Steve’s reply/quote in his comment, that one needs a little work. I’m going to turn that off until I have some time to work on it.
When I left the comment I wasn’t sure if that was the editing thing, or CommentLuv. I’m going to use the edit feature (hopefully) to clean it up…if that doesn’t work, feel free to edit it yourself.
@Steve Belt@Phoenix Area Real Estate Blog -
I think your option for editing has timed out (you can only edit for 15 mins after posting the comment)
Or maybe not as it looks like you edited it! It was the “Reply and Quote” thing that caused that gibberish. Nope — it cleaned itself up when I turned off the reply/quote function.
Man, you are generous. The whole attitude around here is amazing! It’s like you trust people or something.
You know, checking out the improvements to your website has a bit of the feel of checking out a friend’s new car. Ooh! Aah!
Well done!
Way too cool. Again, you’re implementing something that’s been on my mind for quite a while. I opted for the Hotlist to let people link back to themselves because I’d be a bit worried about junk comments (i.e. AR style “great post” comments) if I threw it on Rain City Guide. Anyway, I’m so glad to see you take this on and I’ll be really curious to see how it turns out!
*Dustins last blog post..Week in Review: Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson announced plans Sunday to take control of troubled mortgage giants
The new features look amazing Jay, especially the keyword luv plugin
Ismail
Just going from strength to strength Jay. Perhaps you could do a post about your plugin collection??? I for one would be very keen on that.
*Scott Roemermanns last blog post..Deal or No Deal?
Great Post – Bookmarked for further reading.
No wait, that’s my ActiveRain comment (not).
Seriously, I like the Follow vs. No Follow for legit comments.
I’ll have to play with this. Like the Gravatar too!
*Mike Muellers last blog post..I’m making enemies at REBlogWorld
Thanks for sharing Jay!
Jay,
Glad to see the KeywordLuv plugin installed. I have seen it on a few sites and thought the aspect of grabbing the last post on the person’s blog was pretty sweet. I think that aspect alone encourages (or at least it should) constructive comments. If you make good comments then people will want to view your posts
*James Bridgess last blog post..How to go broke in real estate
I don’t have anything interesting to say, just wanted to check out all this cool, new commenting technology!
Thanks for all the LUV!
Nice adds Jay!
Now onto the most annoying part of being a “giving” blogger – watching out for those trying to game the system. Whether it be my A.D.D., or my generally good nature, I always try to make any reply something that contributes to the post rather than something that just “attaches” to it.
However, it’s always unfortunate when you scroll through some posts (not here specifically, but on other blogs that either do follow or simply don’t use Akismet or any filtering) and see a bunch of one liner replies or replies that are posted by someone with a very auspicious username and a seemingly unrelated or badly worded comment.
Hopefully you don’t mind a little extra work that comes with such an open-use comment policy.
For those of us that love to reply with our own deep thoughts, it’s always nice to not feel pressured to think “Ok, do I leave a long reply on this person’s blog, or do I save some of these thoughts, keep it short, and just write a blog post instead”. I may spend more of my energy commenting on friends’ blogs than writing my own, but it’s only because I try not to half-ass on either side.
With an open policy like this, we at least get a little bonus point or two for the times when we can’t comment and write on our own end. You don’t allow ourselves to feel punished for contributing, in other words.
Thanks for adding KeywordLuv, Jay. Since SEO for real estate sites has become so competitive, I think it’s great when Realtors(R) support each others’ Web site marketing efforts this way.
Hi Jay,
I think what you are doing here with comments is a great idea. More blogs should incorporate these plugins and techniques. Not only does this help commenters in SEO but it helps the blog owner in social proof and credibility.
Thanks for sharing those plugins with us. In fact, I have some of them on my own blog for quite a while and they work very well.
Peter
Hi Jay,
I am very new to blogging and I alway read your new posts. Thank you for sharing all of your fabulous ideas and new plug-ins. One day, I will learn how to incorporate some of these great tools on my own blog.
Keep up the great work!
I lov the keywordluv plugin. I recently added it to my blog as well!
*Terrys last blog post..Michigan SEO, SEO your way out of an economic funk
Of course, I just had to try this out.
Jay, you never cease to amaze me at what you are willing to install and play with on your blog. Kudos for being so brave and installing everything known to man (at least once anyways), whether you know how/or if it works at all.
Looking forward to following a bit closer and seeing what comes of all this.
Your friend,
Matt Pellerin – Realtor
*Matts last blog post..Paradise Valley Sales Report – August 2008
Holy crap that was quick… I thought you said it would take a minute or so to pull my latest blog post? Your system found it almost instantly.
Looks like you are on the right track here.
Matt Pellerin – Realtor
*Matts last blog post..Scottsdale Events in October 2008
My latest post didn’t show up under my comment. Can you tell me how to make my RSS feed “auto-detectable”? Remember…I’m new at this!
Thanks!
Pretty cool plugin – I like it. I wonder if there is anything similar for Drupal.
@Kim Stoegbauer – your RSS seem to be already auto detectable, but you did misspelled your domain name in the second comment.
P.S. Thanks to Jay’s plugin collection, I now registered at Gravatar
(but still don’t see my mugshot here)
Kim, had the same problem. I’m using Wordpress which is pretty much the standard for that sort of plugin, so I’m assuming it could be an issue on the server taking too long to reach during the “find the latest post” process or something similar. I wouldn’t worry about it unless it still happens after a couple days.
It’s weird, when I first posted my comment, a link to the most recent post on PhoenixHomes.com got published. But then, I edited my comment and it disappeared. Is that a bug in the plugin?
*Maxs last blog post..Plans OK’d for land near Desert Ridge
It may well be a timing issue that is keeping some comments form displaying the commenter’s most recent post. I *think* I can bump up the time out, but I’m not sure. In fact, I’m not sure about much of how this all works. I’m a real estate broker, not a programmer!
Max – the comment edit and the recent post are two separate plugins. Looks like you’ve discovered an issue with them not playing 100% well with each other.
Max – Congrats on your mug shot! It’s up now. Also, your last blog post is showing on your second comment now, so that’s good!
Gotta love auto-fill….typed my website wrong the first time I commented (noticed and fixed it right away) yet it auto-filled from the first comment when I made the second comment and I didn’t catch it! (Can I edit it now, or it’s too late?)
Still don’t see my blog post link, but maybe it takes a little while?

Jay, I’m still fairly new at the inner workings of my wordpress blog. How can I tell whether or not I am allowing “do follow” on comments?

Kudos on all the new widget thingys. I’ll have to give them a try…which means I’ll probably have to hire you again to fix everything I’ve broken!
Keywordluv is great…so is commentluv, on one of my blogs where I have tried using them comments have gone up in a huge way. Great stuff.
*Simons last blog post..Vector Pack – Snowboarding Vectors
Jay,
I really like the keywordluv plug-in and was wondering if it put a noticeably greater load on your sever resources?

Jay great explanation of the inner workings of a blog from an SEO standpoint. Of course I like do-follow as well for the reasons you outlined.
*Westboro Real Estates last blog post..RE/MAX Executive Realty Real Estate market share leader through August 2008
It’s great to see agents doing more than putting up pages and waiting for traffic to come rolling in. Agents like you, Jay, that are out on the forefront of this little blogging world of ours, are the ones that folks are going to connect with when it comes time to find someone to represent them.
*MGs last blog post..What Does A State Do When It Loses Its Precious Tax Monies? Leverage A New Real Estate Tax! Why You Should Vote “Yes” On Proposition 100: The Protect Our Homes Act
For Kim and others who may be having problems, you can check whether CommentLuv can find your site or not by entering it here:
http://www.fiddyp.co.uk/commentluv-wordpress-plugin/
It turns out that I had to disable my Feedburner plugin before it could find mine. It may have been causing a timeout or simply obfuscating the feed location enough to make it impossible to find.
Also, lowering the amount of posts your feed shows can help too. 5-7 is a good number from what I’ve found. Hope it helps!
*Edges last blog post..The Five Most Dangerous Mistakes You Can Make Renting A House That Can Cost You Thousands And Lead To Eviction
@James – no appreciable greater server load that I can see.
Jay thanks for the generosity of the links and the tips.
The anti spam math answer – is that a plug in? or part of your theme. I’ve seen it elsewhere and would love to have that.
(thank goodness it was an easy question this time, I didn’t need my calculator – ha ha)
*Neds last blog post..Where Do I Start?
Jay – you continue to raise the bar for old pros and newbies alike. I’m going to look into some of these plugins. And thanks for the ability to edit comments. I’ve blown it more than I care to remember.
I love the fold in the corner – may I copy that slick idea? How hard was that to do?
*Linseys last blog post..Mortgage Market Week in Review
I think what you are doing here with comments is a great idea. More blogs should incorporate these plugins and techniques. Not only does this help commenters in SEO but it helps the blog owner in social proof and credibility.
*Blossoms last blog post..Aurora, Colorado
Linsey (and others) – the little corner flip thingy is a little painful to install. There is a plugin that I never got to work. So I configured the javascript files it contains myself (they are pretty well documented), created the “look here” image and the image that shows when the corner is flipped, and uploaded the images and javascript files to the blogs server. I had to doink around with where the script file are saved, and where in the blog theme header to put the calls to the javascript. The plugin/files are here.
Ned – the math anti-spam is a plugin. It is here.
Edge – thanks for providing that link! Even if that test says it’s OK, there can still be reasons CommentLuv can’t find someone’s last post. Apparently it only tries for about 3 seconds and if it can’t find it, it bails out (makes sense, otherwise it could hang forever). Several connections and things have to be done in that three seconds. If any one thing fails, then no last post will be displayed
It’s also imperative of course to understand that the URL must be typed correctly and it will only pick up blog posts, not static web pages.
Jay,
I think that these are some Great new tools, and I am looking forward to trying to use them within my blog.
Jay – I’m still new to blogging and I’ve learned much of what I know from following your blog. These new tools take your site to an even higher level. Well done!
*Tina Fountains last blog post..Living in Cobb County 2008 Fact Book
These are all great plugins and the help the community if you ask me. The key is you will need to do more moderation because you will get more spammers. But if you can get a few new readers then all the better!
This really does seem like a nifty little plugin, it will definitely encourage more comments on your blog and hence more traffic.
thanks.
Plugins like these are really a great way to get people to read your blog posts. This works best if you wish to market your ideas to a wide audience. For Phoenix real estate, I’m not sure that the benefits outweight the negatives.
I only recently found out about keywordluv but so far it is looking pretty cool. I might implement it on my site, because from the sites I have seen, traffic results have been very promising.
I installed the Keyword Luv plug-in on our real estate blog in San Diego and it really has been interesting to see and track some of the comments. I think that you have to be careful with spam but you also get a lot more participation in your blog and it gets other people involved who might not have participated in the past. I think the plug-in has been a big success.
**Alex´s last blog post..Como duele.
@Alex – thanks for the feedback on your experiences with the Keyword Luv plug-in I will be incorporating it shortly.
@Jay – I thought you might find it interesting that the comment luv plug-in also picks up posts made in vBulletin forums. So, maybe it works for anything that has a RSS feed set up.
I think that those of you that use the keyword luv plugin should commended for your desire to offer a place for relevant comments to be posted while at the same time getting great content posted to your blog. If more bloggers would realize the potential power of such an application, many more bloggers would welcome commenting that would allow the participant to make an on topic post that would in turn increase the publishers content and at the same time allowing the commentor to receive a link back to their own blog with an anchor.
**shawn´s last blog post..Clean Red Widgets On The Attack
hey, what a good idea. I can see it seems to be working well, Judging by the number of comments you have here. Well done!
I have been using this plug-in in my blogs and noticed that a lot of readers have been paying attention to my articles.. though I still receive those usual lame comments. lol
I never realized that there is a proper commenting procedure that allows linking benefits. I just heard that putting merely you name and main website produces little results. Thanks to keyword luv – such a great plug in.
**Ernesto´s last blog post..Solar Lighting – Illumination and other Important Benefits You can Enjoy
Taking part in the dofollow revolution is really commendable. For me it allows me to take part in conversations and also feel that I’m not just twitterring away my time cause I’m getting a little SEO boost by commenting. It makes it worthwhile to join in on the conversation. So good.
I’ve never seen the twitter ID field though. Where’d you get that?
Phil
I’m currently on blogger, but the more I read about these ‘luv’ plugins the bigger the argument gets to switch to wordpress. Not ready to make the plunge yet, but it appears the day is coming.

Nice Review.i interested with this article and useful information.
**gorge´s last blog post..Lilly Donates $1 Million To Help Veterans Of Iraq, Afghanistan
I think you’ll find that using the comment Luv plugin will greatly increase the comments that you get to your site, if you can whittle out the blatantly spammy ones that offer no value however, you are left with some pretty decent feedback. I’ve used it on one of my blogs to great effect.
**Pierre´s last blog post..You either love it or you hate it
I just started using the feature so I cannot comment on how well it works, but I like the idea. I do wonder if it will hurt your SERPs at all with a lot of outgoing links.
i like these plug-ins and I actually use it to one of my blogs except the dofollow one. I can’t still figure out how to do it yet and aside from that I have some reservations about it and I am not sure what will be the side effect of dofollow on my site’s presence online.
I think this plug in is great! While I’m sure it can be annoying with some posting just spam comments, it does intice your readers to leave more comments. It’s a win win situation for both sides. The commenter gets a little link love and the blog owner gets a more active blog.
This info is great. I will have to down load the plugin and use it on my blogs.
These are great plugins, thanks for sharing the info. I’m definitely going to install them on my blog once I get it up and running. It really helps to get people commenting on your posts and adds to the popularity of your site.
Thank you really. This is the information that I’ve been looking for.
Very well-written! Just what I need. Thanks for this.
I like the idea, thanks for the share
I think keyword luv is a great idea, it can sure and hell give you a whole lot more traffic to your blog that can turn into click for your adsense ads. Can’t beat that right!
I love the key word love plugin . Helps a lot to attract lot of comments and show your blog active and attracts traffic too !
the keyword luv plugin has worked wonders for me to increase traffic to my sites and links. and I’m a personal fan of do follow, too…I believe in providing a regulated environment upon which users can share ideas and process them while putting together a comment.
Jay,
I am impressed that a real estate guy is so internet savy! Comments, Twitter, Thesis powerful theme, and who knows what else!
In these tough real estate times an agent has to find the “edge”.
Keep up the good work!

**Bob´s last blog post..10 Easy Steps To Save Money On your Energy Bill
I love the keywordluv plugin. For bloggers, link building through do-follow commenting is one of the necessary evils. It’s hard work but at the end it pays as it brings additional traffic to the site.
I love that plugin. It can get more comments on your blog. How was your Experience with that plugin? Did you get more spam on your site? Hope not.
I’m thinking about adding CommentLuv to my site but have heard it can be a strain on your database. KeywordLuv seems to be a “lighter” application so I may try that one first.
Keyword Luv is a great alternative to comment luv for people whose sites don’t have a feed.
HI, i’ve been trying this technique with keyword love and have to admit, this is damn good ! Excellent post. Thanks for sharing the luv. All the best. Jeff
These plugins definitely get more readers and commentators involved. They also build relationships within the blogger community, too. But, I hope it’s not just about improving your rankings with backlinks: we all have a stake in furthering meaningful discourse in the blogsphere with strong grammar, proper punctuation and compelling content. As Thomas Paine once wrote, “What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly.”
That is exactly what Keyword Luv and Comment Luv are intended to do – get blogger’s audience involved and participating. We love them.
**Hanna´s last blog post..Privacy Policy
The page rank formula still plays a role. Assuming you don’t want to use a page to pass PR to your own pages for internal linking and the phrases you want to rank for, this is a great plugin to reward readers and give them an incentive to ge participate.
Jay,

I’m not a very good typist myself. It’s good that you’d still be able to edit your comments even after you’ve posted it. At least you’ll have time to review it. Keyword luv is a very good technology to improve the traffic of your site.
Hi,
The page rank formula still plays a role. I love the keywordluv plugin. For a blogger, link building through do-follow commenting is one of the necessary evils.
Thanks.
This article is fantastic – a great way to show repsect to your readers and to encourage a bit of debate…sometimes people need a bit of a push/incentive to do so! I’m sure you’ll have seen traffic increase significantly though as a result, at least I hope so!
Bloggers who use KeywordLuv and CommentLuv attract more traffic and also reward their visitors. It seems to be a win-win situation and everybody is happy. But, someone need to create a plug-in that will effectively keep those pesky spammers away!
**Hanna´s last blog post..Watch Live Academy Awards — the Oscars
So far, the only solution to drove away those spammers is to select and moderate all the comments from a blog. But again, just to avoid exclusion of your comments just give relevant comments to the topic. Spread the Luv.
Thanks to the ‘doFollow’ movement and to you of course
– Mike
**Mike´s last blog post..Science and it’s quirks
Do follow is a great way to bring people to your blog and contribute opinions and ideas as well as receive some benefit from the effort. thanks!
nofollow has been developed by yahoo, google and MSN. other day i have noticed MSN message board still use dofollow and most of them flooded by vigra site owners :p
Keyword Luv is a great alternative to comment luv for people who do not have a blog on their site! If you do have a blog on your site, both work great together!
Keyword Luv and Comment Luv are very helpful and useful plugins. I think that all bloggers should give them a try.
Well, i think you guys said it all… This plugin is one of the coolest around
Its great but i think a minimum of control is needed to prevent spammers getting in. Thanks for sharing.
Keyword Luv is an amazing tool.. I love the concept. I ll definitely implement it on my blog asap. Thanks for sharing.
hi………
Thanks for the post on the different changes on to the comments. I really appreciate this because i am also looking for also change this.
Thanks for joining the Comment Luv revolution. Hope you get many lovely comments.
Indeed, the keyword luv plug in do entice commenters into writing more relevant comments on do follow blogs if only because they are assured of high quality link because of this plug in
Hey, thanks for your insights on the plug ins. This is an eye opener.
Hmmm… judging by Steve's reply/quote in his comment, that one needs a little work. I'm going to turn that off until I have some time to work on it.
Some people are afraid that there will be more comment spams after putting up “you comment I follow” or “comment/keyword-luv”. They're afraid of having a spate of a few hundred of those 3-worded comments like “good post” or “keep up the good work” kinda thing. What i find on my personal blog, really is that i indeed have a little more of such comments, but it really encouraged more quality comments to emerge. It's a little pain for a huge gain — to be able to know what our readers think and feel about what we write. Most readers do not leave comments, and if we want to encourage readers who are also webmasters to leave comments, this may be the best thing we can do.
